What would you do to get to me?
What would you say to have your way?
Would you give up or try again
If I hesitate to let you in?
Now would you be yourself or play a role
Tell all the boys or keep it low?
If I say no, would you turn away
Or play me off, or would you stay? Oh
And if at first you don't succeed (first you don't succeed)
Then dust yourself off and try again
You can dust it off and try again, try again
'Cause if at first you don't succeed (first you don't succeed)
You can dust it off and try again
Dust yourself off and try again, try again
And if at first you don't succeed (first you don't succeed)
Then dust yourself off and try again
You can dust it off and try again, try again
'Cause if at first you don't succeed (first you don't succeed)
You can dust it off and try again
Dust yourself off and try again, try again
I'm into you, you're into me, but I can let it go so easily
Not 'til I see what this could be, could be eternity or just a week
But yo, our chemistry is off the chain
It's perfect now, but will it change?
This ain't a yes, this ain't a no
Just do your thing, we'll see how we go
And if at first you don't succeed (first you don't succeed)
Then dust yourself off and try again
You can dust it off and try again, try again
'Cause if at first you don't succeed (first you don't succeed)
You can dust it off and try again
Dust yourself off and try again, try again
So you don't wanna throw it all away
I might be shy on the first date, what about the next date?
Huh, huh, huh, huh
I said, you don't wanna throw it all away
I might be buggin' on the first date, what about the next date?
Huh, huh, huh, huh
And if at first you don't succeed (first you don't succeed)
Then dust yourself off and try again
You can dust it off and try again, try again
'Cause if at first you don't succeed (first you don't succeed)
You can dust it off and try again
Dust yourself off and try again, try again
And if at first you don't succeed (first you don't succeed)
Then dust yourself off and try again
You can dust it off and try again, try again
'Cause if at first you don't succeed (first you don't succeed)
You can dust it off and try again
Dust yourself off and try again, try again
